When will people learn that their understanding of someone's pain or not has no bearing on whether someone feels pain. Just because they don't get it, or think it's silly, or think we should just get over it... doesn't reduce the pain we are burdened with... if anything, it belittles and worsens it. We need to teach respect for the feelings of others, especially when we don't understand them, because under such circumstances, isn't it obvious that we can NOT offer useful advice since we are oblivious to the problem? Here's to survival. Thank you for this encouragement.
